Managing Director's statement
CSR is a strong company with sound businesses. Costs are tightly controlled and marketing and production effectiveness have been improved.
Ustyea? was aStrega** especially t&e second halt, whet* markets were id recession aed in some cases, deep recession. Building and construction activity fell about 10% m Australia and 15% in the United States. World sugar prices fell 20% and world aluminium prices 6%.
Profit was SA325.9 million. We would obviously hare preferred to Save done better. But, given the circumstances, we believe the result was satisfactory.
The final dividend, if approved at the annual general meeting, will be 16 cents a share and fully franked for Australian taxation purposes. This will bring the futi year dividend to 32 cents a share or SA247 million.
Looking back we, and many others, underestimated the severity and length of the recession and were a hole sfaw to fellyadjust to it. On the other hand, Ihe company hasbeen significantly strengthened by the hard times.
CSR It e strong companywithfirst etas assets spread mainly between Australia sad North America. The company has a significant presence in nearfy alt markets in which it competes. CSR has excellent long-term quarry reserves, and sugar mills and aluminium investments which are among the most competitive in the world.
CSR is financially sound, with strong cash flows and modest debt. Its technology is generally up to international bestpractice.
The company's financial performance is subject to the cycles in building and construction activity in Australia and the United States and variations in world sugar and aluminium prices.
There will be years when all are favourable and results forshareholders excellent, as occurred in the year ended March 1990. There will be other times when they vary at random. Sometimes, when all marketsare depressed, as we are currently experiencing, results will be significantly lower.
In addition, profits will generally be higher in CSR's September half year than the March half. The March halfyearisaffected by the Christmas shut down of the building and construction industry in Australia and by winter weather that normally shuts down activity in pans ofthe United States over the period Decemberto February.
Rewards for shareholders through dividend* are also likely to fluctuate with CSR's fortunes.
Feous, or concentration of effort, h of vital importance to companies sack as CSR, We have worked hard at narrowing the focus of the activities the company . manages to building and construction materials and sugar. Aluminium and related products are an investment m internationally competitive assets. This focus is not likely to change, Capital and management resources are being committed to strengthen all activities. The result will be progressively morecompetitive operations.
In, say five years, we see the company having much the same focus although it will be larger and more competitive. It will probably have expanded its presence in other major world markets.
CSfl's bulldiag and construction arterial* basiensestn Australia are now modistronger. Managers are working hard to make theirbusinesses more efficient and more competitive. Much was achieved last year and more will be achieved this year. However, all our building and construction materials businesses in Australia and New Zealand were affected by the recession.

Our raw sugar mills enubabout 35% of the

with sugarcane glowers and employees to introduce
continuous crushing, which will enable a significant
increase in production, with minimal capital
irweSHaent-

We are adopting a cautious approach to rationalising ourrefineries. The replacement of the embargo on sugar imports into Australia with a tariff, in June 1989. gave the Hew South Wales raw sugar industry a significant economic incentive and competitive advantage 10 convert to the production of refined
sugar for the domestic market. As a result we have lost aboul 200 000 tonnes, or 25%, of market share. However, tariffievcls are being progressively reduced and are presently the Subject of an Industry Commission inquiry.
OurmilIs and refineries continue to improve their competitiveness, but profitability is largely detennined by world raw and refined sugar prices and exchangeraxes; /adore outskle our control
Duraluminum interests we lew cost and intemadeoaNy competitive. Expansion ofproduction capacity at the Cove bauxite/alumina project and construction ofthe third potline at the Tomago aluminium smelter will further improve competitiveness.
Lower world aluminium and alumina prices reduced profits last year and will have an even greater impact this year. But the production expansion and productivity improvements at Gove andTomago will ensure both investments continue to produce good returns for CSR over the longer term.
Tbe outlook forthis year te uncertainaed does oot give causefor optimism. Quite simply, we do not know what the state ofthe Australian and United States economics will be. It is reasonable to expect a modest improvement in the second halfof 1991 iflower housing interest rates lead to increased demand for building and construction materials.
Sugar and aluminium prices are equally hard to predict, although we are fairly pessimistic in the short term. Our sugar and aluminium businesses contributed $AJ20 million ofprofit after tax last year. If prices remain at the levels that have prevailed in the first two months of this year, their after tax contribution will be about SA50 million less than last year,
This year is, therefore, likely to be particularly diffioilt. Nevertheless, our situation is far from unique and we are doing all possible to improve productivity. Productivity is. ofcourse, a complex matter in an industrial company. The term embraces costs of all kinds, quality in all its dimensions, as well as efficiency and effectiveness measured on a scale of time.
improving the productivity ofa company the site of CSR is a large task. It involves considerable effort and is sometimes painful. But it must be done. Fortunately, CSR has the right people with the drive to achievethe goal. As a result. CSR is in a sound position to cope with the current recession and will be extremely strong in its aftermath.

Australian house building and commercial construction fell 14% as a result ofhigh interest rates during the first halfofthe yea; and reduced economic activity. Civil construction rose 4% because of continued high levels ofroad and highway building. Demand for most of CSR's building and construction materials was relatively steady in New SouthWales and Queensland and much weaker in Victoria and Western Australia.

optfstiens. The group extended its market coverage throughout eastern Australia. Major growth initiatives included the opening ofa large quarry near Melbourne, acquisition of two Sydney pro-mixed concrete companies and acquisition ofquarrying and sand operations in Queensland. An asphalt plant was opened in Melbourne and approval was gained for the development ofa large quarry south ofSydney.
Profit fell and revenue declined despite growth by acquisition during the year. Market shares were . maintained despite strong competition.
Sales volumes for mostproducts declined from die - record levels in the previous year. The fall was most
severe for pre-mixed concrete resulting from the decline in the commercial construction and housing sectors of the market Demand forcivil engineering products was marginally higher than in the previous year.
Operational efficiency continued to improve. Overhead costs, working capital and overtime were reduced. A number of quarries, pre-mixed concrete plants and concrete products plants were closed to match production capacity to the reduced demand.
Construction of a concrete pipe factory m Victoria began in August 1990. Advanced technology developed by the group will reduce production costs and improve product quality, The factory will start supplying the market in Sate 199!. The Humes concrete pipe business in Fiji was sold.
The Readymix Group is successfully applying the principles ofTotal Quality Management in all businesses. Attention was focussed at all levels on the importance ofcontinuous improvement in customer service and in methods ofproduction.

The Australian economy Is expected to come out of recession in late 199J orearly 1992 and this should lead to an increase in house building. A recovery in commercial construction is not expected until excess office space and hotel accommodation are absorbed over the next two or three yean. Civil construction should continue to grow modestly, underpinned by increased expenditure on infrastructure.

All businesses made profits, bin those of Rinker Materials fell. Divestmentof surplus land and non-strategic operations yielded S449.7 million. However, because of (he depressed state ofthe real estate market, sales of surplus land were below expectations.
US construction activity declined, particularly in the second half of the year as the recession deepened. The value of residential building fell 21%, commercial <non-fesidemiai) building fell 14% and civa<non-building)consciuctioflfell 1%.
Most ofCSR America's markets experienced lower levels ofactivity, particularly Florida, the company's largest market. Markets in Texas continued to recover
from a very low level while those in the Midwest stares were unchanged. Markets in Southern California and Nevada deteriorated rapidly in the second half of (he year.
Majorcost reductions were possible. Employee numbers were reduced by over 1000, mostly in Rinker Materials. Productivity was increased in die ARC America subsidiaries by upgrading equipment, restructuring organisation and improving management methods. The group invested SA38 million in add-on acquisitions, widening geographic and product spread
A25% fail la Florida's construction activity lowered Rinker Material** revenue and profits. Previous overbuilding and e credit squeeze which started early last year, dramatically slowed buildingconstruction. A funding crisis in the Florida DepartmentofTransport substantially reduced expenditure on roads and bridges and it was not until January 1991 that a new petrol tax came into effect to relieve the situation.
Sales ofall products fell, especially concrete blocks and pre-mixed concrete. Despite difficult trading conditions, prices and market shares were generally maintained.
Margins suffered with the reduced volumes. Housing starts in Florida fell 22%. Expenditure on commercial building fell 21 % and expenditure on civil construction, including roads and bridges, fell 38%.
A numberofactions were taken to improve profitability. Plants and districts were combined into larger business units. Plants were automated and computerised management systems introduced. Overhead staffing was reduced by about 50%. Employee numbers in Rinker Materials were reduced by 716 (27%).
Transportcosts were reduced Rinker now carries 50% of its cement sales in its own fleet of45 tankers and trucks, and more than 90% of its aggregate requirements.

Intense competition reduced sales volumes and margins forall products, particularly pre-mixed concrete. A small profit was earned.
To improve market cover, WMK built a pre-mixed concrete plant and an aggregate crushing plant in Las Vegas and expanded its truck fleet. The company replaced or upgraded its three concrete block machines in Las Vegas and improved productivity and product quality at its gravel crushing plants in Us Vegas and Bullhead City, Arizona.

Timber products
After major restructuring and productivity improvements, the timber products businesses should return to profitability this year.
Timber products businesses Ulcered a lass of &A5.5 mitiisB, compared with a SA37.1 Bullion profit die previous year. Revenue fell 12%. Reduced demand from the housing and furniture industries, increased timber imports, one-off retrenchment costs and higher finance charges contributed to thedisappointing result
A thorough review of operations, overhead costs, marketing strategies and organisational structure revealed opportunities for improved performance, Action taken is already producing positive results and CSR's timber prodacts businesses are expected to return to profitability this year.
Wood PaaeJs Group incurred a loss lorthe fall year. A small profitwas earned in the second HaH. Revenue and margins fell. Australian operations incurred a loss because demand for all products foil, except for
ptbron** medium density fibreboard. Formica New Zealand's profitability was maintained despite reduced demand.
Reduced demand in the housing and furniture markets resulted in lower sales of flooring and surtaee-fintshed particleboard Mostplants operated below capacity throughout the year. Market shares were largely maintained despite difficult trading conditions.
As part of its intensified marketing effort. Wood Panels Croup opened or acquired 24 distribution centres in Queensland, New South Wales and Victoria.
Production efficiency at each ofthegroup's factories in Australia and New Zealand was unproved. The group closed production lines with low profitability and re-alfocated production to more efficient units. Overheads were cut and employee numbers reduced.
The Sydney cane-jte** plant was closed, as was a Victorian factory producing particleboard and laminate. CSR sold the formica** laminate factory site in Sydney and will lease it forfive years, priorto relocating the plant to more suitable premises.
New products with a high value-addedcomponent were introduced, including flame retardant structural board hmd** and a range of do-it-yourself products.
Sales from the SA26 million moulded fibreboard door panel plant in Queensland started in April 1991.
Sales of fibronTM medium density fibreboard more than doubled, reflecting the first foil year's operation of the Oberon, New South Wales, factory and improved market acceptance for this product
CSR will begin production ofAustralia's first thin medium density fibreboard at Oberon in June 1991. This new product will enable the company ro replace imports, and to export to markets in Asia, where demand exceeds supply.
A $A6 million components factory at Geebung. Queensland, started production in August 1990. Output is increasing to meet strong demand. ........ -
plantations made a modest profit Sawmilling operations incurred a small loss, mainly because of a low level ofhouse building, particularly in Victoria, the Softwoods Group largest market. Revenue was slightly lower and margins fell. Market shares were maintained despite intense competition from imported structural timber.

Sugar
Sugar profits were down on last year's record, but it was a strong performance in adverse markets.
Profitfell 16%tt JABS.1 million. Revenue fell 7%. Milling profits were reduced by lower world sugar prices and a smaller sugarcane crop. Australian refining profits fell because ofloss ofmarket to MamSdra Harwood Sugars' refinery in northern New South Wales. NewZealand refining improved profitability.

main causes of the reduction. The floods caused minor damage to CSR `s rmMmg operations.
the New York spot price for raw sugar averaged 11.09 US cents a pound, down 2.75 cents on the previous year. World sugar supplies exceeded demand for the first time is five years and stocks rose. Wees continued to decline and die New York spot price averaged 8.21 cents a pound in April/May 1991.
invicta Mill successfully introduced seven-d&y-a-week crushing, considerably improving productivity. The reduced crop made it unnecessary to introduce continuous crushing at otherCSR mills. Hambledon Mill nearCairns will close at the end of the 1991 season, following continued loss ofcane and to urban development. From the 1992 season, sugarcane previously crushed by Hambkdon Mill will be crushed by the neighbouring Mulgrave Mill.
The Queensland Sugar Industry Act, which consolidates and replaces all current sugar industry legislation, is expected to become law in July 1991.
Refined augersales and profits felt CSR*s share of Australian sugar sales fell from 84% to 70% reflecting the first Ml year's operation of Manildra Harwood Sugars' refinery.
Because of this loss of market share, CSR closed its sugar refinery in Adelaide in April 1991. The South Australian market is now supplied from the company's refinery in Melbourne.
Productivity improvements wereachieved through automation and more efficient work practices at refineries. The increase in refining costs was kept below the rate ofinflation. Margins improved. Exports of refined sugar by CSR increased threefold to a record 35 000 tonnes.
A decision on constructing a large sugar refinery in northern Queensland has been deferred. The project is being keptxmderTeview.
Planning is progressing for die long-term redevelopment of CSR's extensive 1aodtoaldmg on the Pyimont Peninsula in Sydney.
New Zealand Sugar Company's profits improved. Sales ofrefined sugar rose marginally. Intensified maiketingeffbrts, a high raw/white sugar price differential and increased sugarexports contributed to the result Market share improved at the expense of imports.
CSR's action against Bcrmett & Rsher for the losses suffered in connection with CSR's purchase of Anchor Foods in 1987 has yet to be heard in court.

Profits from distilling opereboasteU reargiBetly becaasa ofreduced demand and incmesed Imports. Sales of ethanol in Australia were lower in depressed trading conditions, particularly in Victoria and Queensland. Sales in New South Wales were steady. Exports rose strongly. Competition from two new distilleries, one in New South Wales and one in Queensland, will reduce CSR's share ofthe Australian ethanol market from this year.
CSB's shipping business operated profitably, Sugar and
gypsum continued to be themain commodities
"Transported. CSR Shipping Group successfully
tendered to arrange the construction of a 15 000 tonne
capacity bulk cement ship for Australian Cement
Holdings (50% CSR).
..................
Outlook
Work! sugar production is forecast to exceed consumption in 1991, resulting in higher stocks and continued depressed prices. Queensland's 1991 sugar crop has been seriously affected by unusual weather and is unlikely to exceed the 1990 level. CSR!s milling profits are expected to fall further.
CSR's refined sugar sales in Australia and ',New`2rafandShould remain at around last year's
levels. Profits from refining will depend largely on the raw/white sugar price differential, which is * expected to be satisfactory although lower than last year.

CSR's credit ratings are:

CSR has maintained its P-1 and A-l short-teim ratings from the international rating agencies since
they were assigned in 1985. The new ratings assigned by Australian Ratings reflect (he standardisation of its rating scale to that of its parent. Standard & Poor's. CSR's ratings and its conservative gearing enable the company to continue to borrow at competitive rates from domestic and international markets.
Working capital. Current assets were similar to last year. Current liabilities declined by SA63.9 million. The provision for doubtful trade debtors fell by SA10.7 million to$A24.6 million following a write off of$A17.8 million in bad debts compared to SA9.1 million the previous year.
Capital Investment was reduced by 70% to &A452.7 million. Investment was directed mainly at strengthening CSR's building and construction materials businesses in Australia and* the United States.
CeplrStwestroest plumed or committed this year is aboutSAS20million. About SA250 million will be invested in maintaining production capability and improving the efficiency of existing businesses. Most of the balance will be spent on the third potline at the Tomago aluminium smelter, the expansion of quarrying and concrete operations in the United States and Australia, and increasing sugar milling capacity.
Divestments totalled iAmSreiilkra. The sale ofCSR's 50% investment in Austral Brick {$A 142.2 million), 49% investment in Redland Plasterboard <$A 113.8 million) and non-straegic or under-performing assets in the United States (SA49.7 million) accounted for most of the proceeds.
Risk management. CSR's risk management arrangements encourage businesses to practise effective loss control and to provide safe work places. An in-house insurance company with access to international reinsurance markets provides protection against major risks. Since introduction ofthis risk management program in 1987, reserves of SA7.1 million have accumulated from savings on insurance premiums.
Reconciliation with US aceountiog principles. To assist shareholders and analysts outside Australia, a reconciliation ofCSR's financial results and shareholders' equity prepared in accordance with United States'generally accepted accounting principles (US GAAP) is on page 55. Under US GAAP, CSR's net profit after abnormal and extraordinary items would be SA3S0.9 million, compared with SA323.5 million under Australian accounting methods.

CSR values its reputation as a
good corporate citizen, concerned for the environment,
and contributing to the community.
CSR te coramined to high standardsof eiwiroameRtfll jHtrfectioa. The company's environmental policy was formalised in 1983. During the year environmental performance was reviewed, The CSR Board established an Environment, Occupational Health and Safety Committee. Its role is to monitor the group's performance in these areas.
With over 700 plants and 20 000 employees worldwide, the company invests much time and money to ensure emissions are controlled and spillages prevented, as well as to preserve our surroundings. But accidents do happen: people make mistakes and machines develop faults. The tasks facing CSR include the need to heighten ail employees' environmental awareness, ro minimise the number ofenvironment threatening accidents, and to ensure that the impact of accidents on people and the environment is minimal,
As pan of the environmental monitoring and control process, each business unit carries out regular environmental audits. Revised environmental reporting procedures were established during the year. A hazardous chemicals register is maintained to ensure a better understanding and control of potential problems.

The Readymix Group's Oaklands Junction Quarry near Melbourne, opened last year, illustrates CSR's long-term approach to environmental issues. Hundreds of hectares of native bushland were planted by CSR at the site oyer 15 yean ago; very old eucalypt trees have been - prcscrvedJThe quarry surroundings have been landscaped, the aggregate plant is shielded to control dust, and the quarried areas will be progressively -.rehabilitated.
Bradford Insulation's new glasswool plant near Sydney is one of the world's most environmentally sophisticated insulation plants. Advanced technology reduces waste airemissions to substantially below those generally permitted by Australian and overseas regulations.
In some cases CSR benefits directly from investment in environmentally sensitive actions. A new recycling
plant keeps the Gyprock Group's Sydney factory well ahead of accepted standards of waste disposal. Reducing costly waste disposal by reclaiming gypsum from factory waste and reject plasterboard saves SA400 000 a year.
CSR's sugar mills in Queensland have, for many years, used crushed sugarcane fibre to fuel their boilers. Major energy savings result Enough electrical power is produced for the mills to be net exporters ofpower to the Queensland electricity grid.
CSR's 200 square kilometres ofradiata pine plantations, which supply timber for the company's wood panel factories, absorbconsiderable quantities ofcarbon dioxide. Over 200 000 more trees are planted by CSR each year than are harvested.

Financial support is given to local community organisations in areas where CSR operates. Support is also given to national educational and charitable organisations.
CSR has combined withother quarry companies m the Penrith Lakes Scheme (40% CSR) in Western Sydney. The scheme is progressively rehabilitating the quarry which provides Sydney with 50% ofto sandand gravel.

People
The main task for CSR's people is achieving international competitiveness.
CSR's people areimproving the competitiveness 9i ftetr
businesses. Costs are being reduced and productivity improved. There is an increased emphasis on satisfying customer needs. Only by taking these steps will CSR succeed in the increasingly competitive markets of Che 1990s,
Achieving international competitivenessmeans becoming more efficient and effective. This involves redesigning jobs, changing the way we work and changing the way our businesses are operated. When combined with the sharply reduced demand for many ofCSR's products last year, these actions fed, inevitably, to fewerjobs in the company.
Mostof CSR's awards and Industrial agreements in Australia were restructured. More flexible working . arrangements at work sites have been negotiated. Managers and employees can now agree to alter working arrangements to more effectively meet the changing needs of individual businesses.
The sember oTpeepfe employed at31 March 1991 was 2377fewerthan atfee same time lastyear. Ofthe 19 996 people in CSR, 5888 (29%) were employed oaisidt Australia, mostly in Che United States.
1739 people had to be retrenched. The company provided these people with appropriate termination payments aid other forms ofassistance, in accordance with long-standing practice.
Training is tssamJalfer improving people's effectiveness,
CSR provides training for employees at all levels. Business groups are responsible for training their own people. For example, during the year, some 420 people, from senior managers to supervisors, in The Readymix Group participated in training programs designed to apply the principles ofTotal Quality Management fa Monicr PGH 350 people participated in training and development programs covering management sales and technical skills.
Efforts to Improveworkplacesafety were seccessful. CSR is committed to preventing injury and illness by providing a safe working environment. Lost time or alternative work accidents were reduced by 12%.
CSR's serious injury frequency rate fell Major reductions were achieved by several businesses, includingThe Readymix Group. Monier PGH, Rinker Materials, American Aggregates, Hydro Conduit,
CSR Softwoods and New Zealand Sugar.
Management of workplacechemical substances improved. The computer-based register ofhazardous substances in Australia was upgraded.

D Forestsare initially shown at cost at the time ofacquisition by the group. The change in the total volume oftimber in the forests is calculated each year and recognised in net fsofii for the period. US GAAPdees not permit the upward revaluation of assets.
E The group systematically amortises goodwill over the period, not exceeding 20years, during which Orebenefits areexpected toarise. US GAAPallows amortisation on a straight line basis over a period not exceeding 40 years.
F Under US GAAPpurchased patents and trademarks are amortised overa period not exceeding 40 yeses. Moamortisation is proeided'&ythe givwpvutheresweeuntil asevent occurs which results in a loss or limitation of the useful life ofdie asset
Q The group recognisesfuture income tax benefits oftax losses whore realisation ofthe benefits through future income Is virtually certain. UnderUS GAAP future income Is not taken into account ki theconsideration ofthe likely recoupment of tax losses. Adjustment has been made toreverse benefits raised fortax losses except where offset bydeferred income tax liabilities.
H Non-curreminvestments in shares inother companies quoted on stock exchangesare recorded atcosL No revaluation decrement orprovision for diminution is recorded unless, ia the opinion ofdiedirectors, a permanent diminution In value has occurred. US GAAPrequires that any tenurerary declines in value be deducted from shareholder;' equity.
1 Loan*, advanced to employees under share plan loans are offset against shareholders' equity for the ptsposes ofUS GAAP.
J Dividends declared byCSR Limited after theend ofthe financial year are recorded in the yeano which (hey relate. Under US GAAPdividends are recorded in the period in which they aredeclared.
